Another 'Waiganjo' Impostor Arrested at Police Quarters in Nairobi

Another 'Waiganjo' Impostor Arrested at Police Quarters in Nairobi

A man who has been masquerading as a police officer has been arrested after his proverbial forty days count came to an end.

The man is said to have been living in police quarters in Nairobi and has been impersonating police officers.

26-year-old Kennedy Mojong Ekale was arrested on Friday at Security of Government Building (SGB) unit at Uhuru Camp Nairobi where he has been residing for several months comouflaging as a police constable.

Ekale was arrested after Administration Police (AP) officers at the camp realised he has never been listed for or appeared for any duty roster.

He was arrested in possession of AP uniform and is being held at Langata police station as investigations continue. He will be arraigned in court to face charges of being in possession of government property and impersonating a police officer.

Cases of individuals posing as police officers have been on the rise in the country. Police impostor Joshua Waiganjo shot into the public limelight when he was charged in court for masquerading as a senior police officer in Nakuru for many years.

In 2015, a Naivasha court handed Waiganjo a five-years jail term for impersonating a police officer, one year for dressing in police uniform, and six months each for three charges of being in possession of government stores.

Yet the IEBC cleared Waiganjo and terrorist Maina wa Njenga both to run during the last election.

My Kenyans brothers and sisters, please wake up from your political death. Boycott the October election if it is run by the IEBC or if Uhuru or Raila are running as presidential candidates.

Don't complain when Kenya goes to the dogs. How can you trust a hyena or a wolf to guard and protect your sheep?

Kenyans: neither Uhuru nor Raila is fit to lead Kenya.

Solution: NASA and Jubilee political parties should nominate a good candidate without a single skeleton in their closets to run come October 17, 2017.

Where are the records that transferred or attached him to this unit. There should be in-built internal verification processes; before those in charge received and assigned him a housing unit. If an individual can penetrate the security system, how about moneyed organized criminals? Fake cops, fake doctors, fake lawyers, fake degrees-It is worrisome that these fakes have skimmed security, health, judicial and education system.

Somebody from the police department must helped him get into police quarters. He cannot assign himself a house.

@ OneDay@times.

As I said earlier this week, our British former colonial masters were arrogant and efficient. Our current oppressors (Kikuyu @ Kalenjin) are arrogant, incompetent, and inefficient.

Uhuru is suggesting that the current inefficient IEBC run the October 17 election again. This idea or giving a second chance to a failed institution can come only from an alcoholic and a failed leader.

The people of Kenya have had enough from incompetent, selfish, and myopic leaders and it's time the people stop entertaining such failed leaders. Look at the current important appointments, you would think that the Kikuyu are 90% of the Kenya population!

Why are the rest of the people afraid of openly challenging Uhuru for making his micro-nation the center of everything in Kenya?

In order to start making immediate positive changes in Kenya, IEBC should not be allowed to be in charge of another election. Raila should step down and allow another NASA member to run. The same thing applies to Uhuru. He should step down and let another member of the Jubilee alliance run for the presidency of Kenya.

We the patriotic people of Kenya must stand tall and rescue our nation from hyenas and wolves pretending to be leaders while feasting on our sheep daily without mercy.

The former Bishop of the Anglican church in S. Africa once said, " If you are silent in situations of injustices, you have taken the side of the oppressor."

@Guest 1.

You asked me to identify some of Raila's skeletons. The first one was his attempt to overthrow the government of Toroitich in 1982 where many innocent lives were lost.

Second, when he was in the coalition government with PNU, he appointed his close family member to be the Kenyan ambassador to the USA, and his sister the Kenyan consulate in the Los Angeles office. This is nepotism. Finally, in his prime minister's office, he ordered a shower be built in his office! We take showers at home not in our offices. We need caring and sensitive leaders to concentrate their leadership skills in improving the lives of the common mwananchi. On a positive note, Raila will be remembered for his active role as a member of the second liberation of Kenya and his constant checking on the corrupt and selfish Uhuru. Unlike the singer of " Tawala. .... tawala Uhuru, Raila has been at the center of Kenyan politics for his entire life. Had he remained silent like Uhuru, dictator Toroitich would still be in power like dictators Kagame, Museveni, and senior citizen Mugabe.
